Thu, 13 Feb 2014 04:07:35 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2316050#comment-280098yeah except he’s old is average this year coming off a semi-retirement and is unstable as a character. why would you pick him?

really wish you’d stop using the word troll, its annoying. not sure why your so hard on for proving me wrong. i never thought somebody would be so pissed i thought that jonathan quick was the best american goaltender to play in this tournament.

This is a preliminary game, and a good one to see what Quick can do! Miller has proved himself on a terrible defensive team with scoring issues (least goals in the NHL). Playing Quick first does not mean that he is the No. 1 goalie, but it does make sense to put in Miller against a strong Russian team! Let’s watch some hockey!

Wed, 12 Feb 2014 20:54:15 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2316050#comment-280062I love Jonathan Quick, but this is a risky move. We all know that LA not only has a great defense, but a defensive system that makes a goalie’s job a little easier. It’s a risky move grabbing a goalie from that type of system and putting him in a high pressure situation; just ask the Flyers. Obviously Quick is a better goalie than Ilya Bryzgalov, Bryz was a Vezina trophy finalist before going to Philadelphia and now they’re paying him over a million per year for the next ten years to NOT play for them. You don’t see Canada throwing Mike Smith out there.

I just think Miller was a safer, and better pick. He’s playing better on a worse team, and was the MVP of the tournament in 2010. Quick can catch lightning in a bottle and win this tournament by himself, but he’s a pretty big risk as well.

Wed, 12 Feb 2014 19:50:06 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2316050#comment-280050but the Quick supporters will tell you its becuase his team went on a scoring drought….Millers team has been on a scoring dorught since game 1.

I by no means am against Quick he is very good but the logic on him starting is very flawed.

Wed, 12 Feb 2014 19:45:13 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2316050#comment-280048How dare people use stats to rate how well a player is playing! The only time you don’t use stats is when you are wrong and want to keep arguing your point. Quick is 16-13-2 while Jones/Scrivens were 15-9-4. Quick’s backups have MUCH better combined GAA/Save% than Quick, with the backups playing 32 games and Quick playing 32 games this year. So please enlighten me as to how the stats of goalies on the same team don’t matter.

By the way, I don’t want the team to lose, I just think they made the wrong choice. I would rather have the guy with a better save percentage on a terrible team than the goalie with a great defense who has been outplayed by everyone else they’ve thrown into the net.

Wed, 12 Feb 2014 19:26:14 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2316050#comment-280044That’s it exactly. People who are bringing up stats are only doing so because they haven’t been watching and want to size him up, but he is a guy that can play high pressure and be that clutch guy that steals games. He isn’t perfect and his stats have skid but he IS the better goalie. If people want him to fail, it’s just because they don’t like him or the team he plays for and a solid performance in this first game isn’t going to change a thing for people with that kind of mentality.

Wed, 12 Feb 2014 19:13:00 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2316050#comment-2800392013-14 Season
Miller 14-22-3, 2.74, .923
Quick 16-13-2, 2.18, .911

Last 10 games
Miller 4-4-2, 2.84, .912
Quick 2-7-1, 2.46, .898

Quick has 2 more wins this season, on a much much better team…

How about “I hope Bylsma was right and Quick plays well.”

Wed, 12 Feb 2014 19:01:04 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2316050#comment-280029The west is way harder than the east. They may have a handful of the top players but the west has the most teams with scoring across all 4 lines. To say that miller has to go up against tougher teams is just false. In the pacific division alone, quick has it worse by a mile.
